Douluo: The Unrivaled Evil Nightmare Devil

Chapter 156: Forced to Explode Gold Coins, Revealed
To be honest, Moon was a little angry at first.

As Moon's disciple, as the future leader of Poseidon Pavilion, and as the genius little monster that Shrek Academy focused on training, Ye Qing's behavior of leaving without saying goodbye was really irresponsible.

That's why he was so serious towards Ye Qing at the beginning. He was planning to give this irresponsible disciple of his a little hardship.

We need to let him know that he is still a student and it is not the time for him to act recklessly!
But now he couldn't help but give up the idea.

"Teacher doesn't really like to explore other people's secrets, even if this person is my disciple. Everyone has their own secrets. Exploring them will only cause disgust." Moon frowned slightly, his tone as calm as ever, "But Ye Qing, this time you have to give the teacher an explanation, why you left without saying goodbye, and what on earth did you do this time you left."

"Teacher wants to know." Moon En just looked at Ye Qing straight, waiting for his answer.

Ye Qing groaned for a while, then nodded and said, "I will definitely not tell anyone about this matter. After all, it is a serious matter. But if you ask, there is no need to hide it."

It was obvious that Lao Ye was about to talk nonsense again.

Moreover, it was a story he made up after careful consideration, and it was enough to fool Moon.

"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it." Hearing Ye Qing's serious words, Moon's expression became serious, and he even sat up straight on the recliner.

But Ye Qing did not speak directly, but looked around.

It was class time in the outer courtyard, so there were not many people in the entire outer courtyard, but Ye Qing still spoke carefully: "Teacher, do you think it would be better if we go back to the Sea God Pavilion and discuss where I went?"

Moon En was slightly stunned, but did not refuse. He waved his hand again, and Ye Qing and Moon En appeared on the third floor of Poseidon Pavilion.

This is a small tea room, which seems to be where Moon usually rests. Even Ye Qing is here for the first time.

"Can you tell me now?" Moon asked.

Ye Qing nodded, hesitated for a while, took out a jade box made of fine jade from the soul guide, then opened the buckle and slowly opened it.

The moment the jade box was opened, a light, refreshing and beautiful floral fragrance immediately filled the entire tea room, suppressing the original strong tea flavor, leaving only this unique floral fragrance.

Moon was even more refreshed when he smelled the fragrance of the flowers. Even the pain in his body that was caused by the dragon pill's violent energy and was always occurring was greatly alleviated.

"This...what is this?!" Moon widened his eyes and stared at the things in the jade box.

It was an orchid, with leaves with golden threads and eight petals. It had a light and elegant fragrance and was good for strengthening the body and nourishing the vital energy. If placed in a jade box, it would remain green for hundreds of years and would not wither.

"Immortal herb, eight-petal immortal orchid." Ye Qing said softly.

Yes, his plan was to pretend that he was forced to explode the gold coins, and use the shock of the fairy herbs to dilute the fact that he was missing.

With the fairy herbs as a lead, and his safe return, the fact that he ran away without saying goodbye would at most be praised by the old men, and they would never turn against him. Moreover, it was hard to say who the gold coins would be used for. If Ye Qing made a suggestion, this eight-petal fairy orchid would most likely be used for Zhang Lexuan. After all, it was something he brought back.

The right of disposal is definitely in his hands!
Even if the Eight-petal Fairy Orchid was not used on Zhang Lexuan in the end, it didn't matter. He was not dead anyway. There were still many fairy herbs in the Silver Dragon's Reverse Scale. Some were whole herbs, and some were the essence of a hundred thousand year old fairy herbs.

When the time comes, I can just pick one out for Zhang Lexuan in private.

If it is really distributed by the elders of the Poseidon Pavilion, this eight-petal fairy orchid will be regarded as a partial return for the resources they invested in Ye Qing.

Although the resources that Lao Deng gave to Ye Qing were precious, they were insignificant compared to the magic grass and were enough to repay part of it.

Moon En looked at the jade box in Ye Qing's hand and fell into deep silence. The look in his eyes was extremely complicated. After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Is this what you gained from this trip?"

Ye Qing nodded and slowly explained: "I originally wanted to travel to the Sun Moon Empire this time. I think soul guides are not as bad as my senior brother said. The soul master system has not made any progress for a long time since the emergence of soul cores, but soul guides are different."

"The biggest difference between humans and soul beasts is that humans are intelligent and know how to use tools, but soul beasts don't. Soul guides are soul masters' tools, just like the sickles and hoes that ordinary people use when working."

"It is true that we can work with our hands, but it is far from being as convenient and quick as using tools. Why do we regard soul guides as a scourge? After all, they are just tools. The more powerful the soul master, the greater the effect they can play."

Moon understood that this was just Ye Qing's opening remarks, but this opening remark alone had already made him look at his disciple with new eyes.

The entire Shrek Academy has actually fallen into a vicious circle. Moon sees it clearly that the so-called glory of soul masters has blinded the eyes of most Shrek people, making them short-sighted and disdainful of soul guides.

Originally, Moon was quite anxious. He wanted change, but even though he was highly respected, it was difficult for him to resolve the Shrek people's prejudice against soul guides.

He once wanted Ye Qing to get in touch with soul guides, but in the face of Ye Qing's outstanding talent for cultivation and his hard-working attitude towards cultivation, Moon En finally gave up the idea. He felt that Ye Qing was more suitable to be a soul master.

What he didn't expect was that his disciple had such a long-term vision, far surpassing those titled elders whose bodies were already half buried in the ground.

"Go on." Moon nodded slightly, his tone still calm, but Ye Qing heard a hint of satisfaction in his words.

Second step successful!
Ye Qing chuckled inwardly, and then continued: "Of course, learning about soul guides is also a way to prepare for next year's Soul Fighting Competition. Only by understanding the enemy can we defeat the enemy. Under the impetus of many factors, I went to the Sun Moon Empire after leaving seclusion."

"But when I was traveling in the Sun-Moon Empire, I accidentally entered a place..."

Here comes the point!

"Where?" Moon sat up straighter, waiting for Ye Qing's follow-up.
